Once Again Nut Butter, Inc.

Once Again Nut Butter is changing the name of its Raw Almond Butter. When it was introduced 12 years ago, “raw” did not have the same meaning it does today. The single ingredient in Lightly Toasted remains only almonds. The firm has not changed the way it is made and it still uses the same processes as many “raw” manufacturers. However, the company feels calling this product “raw” no longer reflects the industry standard of processing below 115 degrees. Once Again Nut Butter’s pride as worker/owners speaks loudly.
